The enzyme citrate synthase (E.C. 2.3.3.1 [previously 4.1.3.7]) exists in nearly all living cells and stands as a pace-making enzyme in the first step of the Citric Acid Cycle (or Krebs Cycle).[1] Citrate synthase is localized within eukaryotic cells in the mitochondrial matrix, but is encoded by nuclear DNA rather than mitochondrial. It is synthesized using cytoplasmic ribosomes, then transported into the mitochondrial matrix. Citrate synthase is commonly used as a quantitative enzyme marker for the presence of intact mitochondria.
Citrate synthase catalyzes the condensation reaction of the two-carbon acetate residue from acetyl coenzyme A and a molecule of four-carbon oxaloacetate to form the six-carbon citrate.[2] Oxaloacetate will be regenerated after the completion of one round of the Krebs Cycle.
acetyl-CoA
Oxaloacetic acid
Citric acid
acetyl-CoA + oxaloacetate + H2O → citrate + CoA-SH
Oxaloacetate is the first substrate to bind to the enzyme. This induces the enzyme to change its conformation, and creates a binding site for the acetyl-CoA. Only when this citroyl-CoA has formed will another conformational change cause thioester hydrolysis and release coenzyme A. This ensures that the energy released from the thioester bond cleavage will drive the condensation.
Citrate synthase's 437 amino acid residues are organized into two main subunits, each consisting of 20 alpha-helices. These alpha helices compose approximately 75% of citrate synthase's tertiary structure, while the remaining residues mainly compose irregular extensions of the structure, save a single beta-sheet of 13 residues. Between these two subunits, a single cleft exists containing the active site. Two binding sites can be found therein: one reserved for citrate or oxaloacetate and the other for Coenzyme A. The active site contains three key residues: His274, His320, and Asp375 that are highly selective in their interactions with substrates. The image to the right highlights the three key amino acids of citrate synthase's active site in its open state (the substrate is absent).[3] The specific atoms involved in interactions are designated by color, and both a drawing and video of their mechanism can be found in the section labeled "Mechanism" below. The images to the left display the tertiary structure of citrate synthase in its opened and closed form. The enzyme changes from opened to closed with the addition of one of its substrates (such as oxaloacetate).[4]
Citrate Synthase has three key amino acids in its active site which catalyze the conversion of acetyl-CoA (H3CCO-SCoA) and oxaloacetate (COO-CH2COCOO-) into citrate (COO-CH2COHCOOCH2COO-) and H-SCoA in an aldol condensation reaction. This conversion begins with the negatively charged oxygen in Asp375’s R-group deprotonating acetyl CoA’s alpha carbon. This pushes the e- to form a double-bond with the carbonyl carbon, which in turn forces the C=O up to pick up a proton for the oxygen from one of the nitrogens in the R-group of His274. This neutralizes the R-group (by forming a lone pair on the nitrogen) and completes the formation of an enol intermediate (CH2COH-SCoA). At this point, His274’s amino lone pair formed in the last step attacks the proton that was added to the oxygen in the last step. The oxygen then reforms the carbonyl bond, which frees half of the C=C to initiate a nucleophilic attack to oxaloacetate’s carbonyl carbon (COO-CH2COCOO-). This frees half of the carbonyl bond to deprotonate one of His320’s amino groups, which neutralizes one of the nitrogens in its R-group. This nucleophilic addition results in the formation of citroyl-CoA (COOCH2CHCOOCH2COHSCoA2-). At this point, a water molecule is brought in and is deprotonated by His320’s amino group and Hydrolysis is initiated. One of the oxygen’s lone pairs nucleophilically attacks the carbonyl carbon of citroyl-CoA. This forms a tetrahedral intermediate and results in the ejection of –SCoA as the carbonyl reforms. The –SCoA is protonated to form HSCoA. Finally, the hydroxyl added to the carbonyl in the previous step is deprotonated and citrate (-COOCH2COHCOO-CH2COO-) is formed.[5]

The enzyme is inhibited by high ratios of ATP:ADP, acetyl-CoA:CoA, and NADH:NAD, as high concentrations of ATP, acetyl-CoA, and NADH show that the energy supply is high for the cell. It is also inhibited by succinyl-CoA, which resembles Acetyl-coA and acts as a competitive inhibitor. Citrate inhibits the reaction and is an example of product inhibition. The inhibition of citrate synthase by acetyl-CoA analogues has also been well documented and has been used to prove the existence of a single active site. These experiments have revealed that this single site alternates between two forms, which participate in ligase and hydrolase activity respectively.[7] This protein may use the morpheein model of allosteric regulation.
